3D Leprechaun Hat Box Tutorial

Hi there friends! Today I am sharing an assembly tutorial for the 3D Leprechaun Hat (SVG, Silhouette). As soon as this paper collection came out, I knew I wanted to craft with it. It is the Happy St. Patrick’s Day collection by Echo Park Paper Co. This little hat is the perfect size for a tiered tray or to hold a little treat for someone special.

This cut file has five circles, two long strips with tabs, and two buckle pieces. The tabs are all mountain folds.

 

I started with the narrow strip first. This will be the hats brim. I added glue to the end tab and attached to the other end creating a circle. I then folded over all the tabs and added glue to each tab on the inside of the cup. Then I put one of the same-colored circles inside the cup and pressed down on each tab against my work surface making sure to shape and secure each one. I flipped the cup over and glued the second same colored circle on the top covering the tabs. With the wide strip and the two smaller remaining circles I repeated the steps making a taller cup.

To help give a little dimension and to hide the white core paper I inked all of the remaining pieces and the two cups.
I glued the two buckle pieces together. Then glued the shorter cup to the center of the largest circle. The taller cup is turned over and fits inside the smaller cup creating the hat. I glued the buckle into place only adding glue to the bottom half of the back of the buckle so that the hat can still open.
I added a few stickers from the collection to glam my hat up a little as well as a jewel brad from my stash.

I really like how it turned out and will be adding it to my tiered tray decor next month. Thanks for stopping by today!

Sticky Note Calendar Box

Hello Artsy friends! Today, I’m sharing a cute new mini, but … it’s not an album. It’s a pretty (and practical) sticky note box with a mini calendar! It’s great for keeping track of those little notepads and the calendar will keep you organized at a glance. This would be a nice addition to your desk or a great gift idea for someone special. Remember, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner!

I made this with a wonderful Lori Whitlock cutting file called Sticky Note Calendar 2024 (SVG, Silhouette). I used paper and embellishments from the Echo Park, A Year in Review Collection, also designed by Lori.

I cut out all of the pieces with my Silhouette Cameo machine and chose the coral / green solid paper from the collection for the base.

I loved the pretty 6×6 inch floral print called October so I added that to the front behind the calendar pages.

Next, I decorated the box with a beautiful heart and a pencil cup from the 12×12 sticker sheet. I added a red enamel heart on February 14th as a cute reminder of the holiday and the yellow pad of sticky notes. Done!

Below is a photo of the cutting file I used …
